You white folks have long been eating the white meat of the chicken. We Negroes are now ready for some of the white meat instead of the dark meat.

Whatever the white man has done, we have done, and often better.

Enter to learn; depart to serve.

Faith is the first factor in a life devoted to service. Without it, nothing is possible. With it, nothing is impossible.

Whatever glory belongs to the race for a development unprecedented in history for the given length of time, a full share belongs to the womanhood of the race.

When they learn of Shakespeare and Goethe, we must teach them of Pushkin and Dumas. . . . Whatever the white man has done, we have done, and often better.

Next to God we are indebted to women, first for life itself, and then for making it worth living.
